Shadows of Destiny

06 Another Alpha In Play ~Tamia~ “What is the Alpha of Greenwood Pack doing here?” I linked Linda, and she scuffed.

“Kyle feels our region needs to create an alliance with them to fight the Wolf Lord, “Linda explained, and I frowned.

“Wouldn’t that be looking for trouble?” I said and she shook her head.

“I think so, but the alphas don’t.

You didn’t attend the last meeting, so you missed the Chauvinism.

They are teaming up to take the fight to the Wolf Lord.

They said our world would be better without him.

He has taken over the entire north and western region,” She said.

1 I turned my head toward Alpha Devin, who stood patiently waiting for me to finish my conversation with Linda.

“I will think about it,” I said, and he was stunned by my response.

He wasn’t expecting me to say no.

“Well then, I will wait patiently until you decide,” He bowed and walked away.

I could hear Leo growing in my head.

“I am going to spank you when we get home,” He growled.

“Save the bedroom stuff for your fated; we are way past that now,” I said, took a sip of my wine, and continued chatting with Avery and Linda.

“I think alpha has the hots for you, Tamia; better give it a shot.

He is a big catch, bigger than Leo.

He doesn’t have a luna yet.

He might challenge Leo for your hand,” Linda said, and I smiled at her.

My heart wasn’t ready to leave Leo, as hurt as I was.

I know it was stupid, but that was how I felt.

I was hurt and angry, but I couldn’t let go.

“How are you holding up? That woman is a snake.

I learned she accused you of staging an attack on her life,” Avery said, and I nodded.

“Leo almost slapped me,” I said, and she gasped.

“Do not let him land the first blow, dear; once he does, he won’t stop.

As far as those two are concerned, you are an obstacle, a mistake.

An unnecessary attachment that they are stuck with.

I bet he begs her to forgive him for not waiting for her,” she said, sounding angry, and I knew she was sharing her truths.

“Does Kyle hit you?” I asked her, and she looked at me with teary eyes.

“Every night they fight, he takes it out on me.

He says I am the cause of his problems.

I want to leave but can’t afford to be a rogue.

No one will take me in because I am Luna.” She said and drank her wine in a rush.

I looked at Avery, and she smiled at me.

“The same with me.

The beating proves to their bitches that they do not feel anything for us and are only with us out of necessity.

That is the worst part: We can’t leave because no pack will absorb us.

Anything is better than the rogue status.

You are lucky he hasn’t started beating you yet,” She said, and I was stunned at the women.

I could now understand Linda’s drunken behaviour all the time.
